Troy Steinman. Will go back six groups but is still improving.
Put your money on Gary
In the Vets Handicap short course, Katie goes forward to group 38, I go forward to group 36, Ken goes back to group 38. But Gary Bowen goes forward to group 34. So after Gary's brilliant 3000m on Thursday, Gary should be viewed as the firm favourite for handicap honours in November.
Today's training at Stromlo
We ran 3x1k fast, a repeat of last week's session down the gravel cycle hill alongside Cotter Road, with a recovery jog back up. Troy ran 3:17, 3:06, 3:10; I ran 3:47, 3:46, 3:42; Janene 3:48, 3:47, 3:54 (? I think), and Tony I didn't get his times but cumulatively he was ten seconds quicker than he was last week.
We will keep meeting at 9:00am at Stromlo Forest Park on Saturdays.
